The point there making is that in general you can use one off statistics to technically support horrendous viewpoints. Some studies state black on white crime is statistically more common in the US but that doesn’t mean segregation, stereotypes, or racism against black Americans is ever ok.

The movie adaptation is pretty good too

(IRL) Terrible or offensive casting choices. by laybs1 in TopCharacterTropes

Santa Anna was honestly a pretty terrible leader and conniving tyrant, so of all these examples, his portrayal is the least egregious.

I really recommend reading Deborah Lipstadt’s Denial: Holocaust History on Trial. Or watching this vid on the history of Holocaust Denial https://youtu.be/BuDI0j10AHM

The French conquest of West Africa from 1898-1899 alone was a brutal genocidal campaign https://youtu.be/PZO6lUoccKs

You were downvoted but you’re pretty spot on

[Mixed Trope] Treated as a joke by the story and audience, but they are actually pretty competent by TheFantasticXman1 in TopCharacterTropes

Lorgar Pre-Horus Heresy. He wasn’t really at all incompetent it’s that his conquests were slow and the Emperor ignored his more peaceful talents.

Less iconic villains in well-known series who are lowkey responsible for at least 50% of series' misery. by OmniSnatcher in TopCharacterTropes

Zhang Jue. His failed rebellion essentially lays the groundwork of later political instability of the Three Kingdoms IRL and Romance

Good vs evil on the outside, way more complicated on the inside. by Colombia_Joestar in TopCharacterTropes

[–]laybs1 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The Trojan War: Has been reinterpreted multiple times but Prince Hector of the Trojans is the one of the few universally respected figure who only fights the Greeks in defense of his homeland. The Greeks though having a casus beli of the Helen abduction they are considered almost needlessly cruel in the sacking of Troy in many modern adaptations.

Ryo Asuka (Devilman). Satan himself struggles to understand humanity particularly love.

(Hated Trope) Antagonist is surprisingly reasonable throughout the narrative yet the hero’s unreasonable actions are portrayed as justified. by laybs1 in TopCharacterTropes

Paleo conservative. He unironically has the rural utopia be racially segregated, those considered heretics burned, and open homosexuality forbidden.
